Mexico

Well, we have travelled from China and the 2008 Olympics to Mexico... We're "rowing" The Gullywasher by Joyce Rossi and reading (and completing the activities) through Mexico! by Susan Milord. In there, we are learning about the history and culture of Mexico. We made "Ojos de Dios" last week, had Mexican food for dinner last night, and today we went to EPCOT and took the Gran Fiesta Tour with the Three Caballeros!

We also tried on serapes and sombreros. We might try to make some serapes. DS#2 and DD really liked them! Of course, I think our favorite part so far has been the snacks! Who can resist Churros and Bunuelos? YUM!!

Today, we wove a belt, which turned into a bracelet for DD... we made it with a popsicle weaving loom...

DS#1 built a model of a Mayan Temple.
